Affectionally nicknamed “Barbie’s Dream Kitchen”, this retro Scandi-style space was built as one of several display kitchens in SpaceCraft Joinery’s showroom.
The display was designed to show off the more playful and colourful stylings the SpaceCraft team can produce with the help of clever design and high-quality surfaces and products. Staron Solid Surfaces, primarily in the very popular Bologna Terrazzo option, appears heavily throughout this display kitchen.
Chosen for their versatility, Staron Solid Surfaces were the perfect choice for this kitchen that’s full of seamless curves. Manufactured from refined bauxite, a safe silica-free mineral, and blended with pure acrylic resin, this surface is known for being high-performing. Thanks to its non-porous nature, Staron is both stain-resistant and easy to clean – perfect for frequently used areas of the kitchen.
The Bologna Terrazzo is eye-catching on the multi-purpose benchtop, beautifully complementing the kitchen’s deep burnt ochre and dusty pink hues as well as the Tasmanian oak timber that appears throughout. This labour-intensive benchtop was carefully crafted by the SpaceCraft Joinery workshop team to create an area that comfortably seats four. This gorgeous surface also appears throughout the kitchen in the form of open shelving and custom-made plant pots.
That’s right, Staron Solid Surfaces are so versatile they can be used to create the extraordinary. This kitchen highlights the fact that good things can come in small packages, and that working with a compact kitchen space does not mean you must compromise on style. In this day and age, if you choose high-quality products and a clever kitchen designer, you truly can have it all.
